Given the recent discovery of the Bones of Richard III in Leicester, we have
come up with a topical quiz about said Monarch. So, since our multiple question approach has proved so popular of late we have decided to stick with it until it dies a death. As always, answers, along with the picture you would like us to publish should you be lucky enough to win can be sent to quiz[at]newsnibbles.co.uk – g00d luck Nibblers.
